The news of Xiangguo's birthday and the emperor's gift of wine quickly spread from the imperial capital, and it caused a lot of turmoil, both openly and secretly.

By the time this news reached Donglai, it was already the beginning of March, and there was also a letter from Xiangguo Mansion that reached Donglai with this news.

At that time, Jiang Shijun, the governor of Donglai County, was gathering all the county officials under his command to celebrate the opening of the Donglai County Road.

After reading the letter, Jiang Junshou was silent for a while, and then called Huo Yunshu to his study alone, and handed the letter to Huo Yunshu.

"My lord, this letter..."

"Lieutenant Huo Xian is someone you can trust." Jiang Junshou said: "Let's see for yourself."

Since last year, Wang Yi has tried every means to find a new official position for Huo Yunshu. Originally, he wanted to hire a county magistrate, but he didn't expect to be a county magistrate. However, in his opinion, the two are almost the same. It's to help him worry.

If it wasn't for this incident, Huo Yunshu might still be in Muyang City, talking about marriage for the soldiers.

"Yuan Xiangguo actually entrusted Mr. Envoy Jun to speak for his fifth son, Yuan Xin?" Zhan Xin saw it, and Huo Yunshu was shocked, and blurted out: "The woman is the head of Bai?"

Bai Su is the only person who can get Huo Yunshu's title of "Bai Dangjia" in the whole Donglai.

"This envoy has some old friends with the Yuan family. He used to be a senior official in Yuan Xiangguo's mansion." Jiang Junshou sighed: "It was only later that I came to Donglai to serve as the county guard. That's why I wrote this letter today."

Huo Yunshu immediately understood, no wonder Captain Gao Zhimin didn't dare to blatantly deal with Chuning back then, it turned out that it was because he was jealous of Governor Jiang.

"Bai Wuhui is the envoy's junior sister. She doesn't want to be on the courtyard wall, so this envoy will reject this letter." Jiang Junshou has long known his junior sister's preferences, so naturally he will not force her, and he can't force her: " The county lieutenant was summoned today in the hope that the county lieutenant can entrust someone to take this letter to Muyang City."

Huo Yunshu returned to his residence with the letter, read it back and forth several times, and then sealed the letter again.

Just as he was about to call for someone to deliver the letter, he saw third uncle Huo Yu coming in with a bowl of fried beans and a jar of wine in his arms.

"Yunshu, have you finished your work today?" Uncle Huo sat on the Hu chair, put down the fried beans and wine jar, pointed to the chair opposite, slapped the table and shouted: "Come and drink with Uncle Huo, let's talk together Son."

"Third Uncle." Huo Yunshu put down receiving the letter, sat down opposite Huo Yu, and said with a smile, "You look like this, did you just get off the wine table?"

"Hahaha! Isn't it a joy to celebrate the passage of the county road today? Those merchants set up a banquet in the heaven and earth, and laughed at your third uncle's lack of alcohol during the banquet... Hehehe, your third uncle and I, Xiaolu, drank all those merchants Get down!"

"Third uncle, you are joking. With your drinking capacity, who dares to say that you are shallow?" Hearing Huo Yu's words, Huo Yunshu couldn't help but said: "I remember when I was six years old, you came from the Donglai Hui tribe, because of your meritorious service. , the clan decided to reward you, but you exchanged the reward for a chance to drink... The Sangluo wine brewed by the clan winery, after drinking it in one meal, the manager of the winery turned green and chased you with a broom beat……"

"You still remember what happened so long ago." Huo Yu glanced at Huo Yunshu, picked up the wine jar by himself, took a long sip, and sighed: "Yes, Sangluo wine...haven't drunk it for many years Sangluo wine. But now there is Lihuabai, isn’t it? It is more fragrant, mellower, clearer and more intoxicating than Sangluo wine..."

"But no matter how intoxicating Li Huabai is, it has nothing to do with me, the Huo family." Huo Yunshu's eyes turned red immediately: "In the past 30 years, every time I think of that bloody night, I will dream of my Huo family... there are thousands of people! Third Uncle! That is the life of more than a thousand members of my Huo Clan!!!"

"What happened to more than a thousand lives? Is it worth it?" Huo Yu sneered: "You know, how many people died in the vision the year before last and Tai Shiling's "bad omen"?——the entire Northeast, those born that month Kids, almost all... all gone."

"...Third Uncle, are you persuading me to let go? It's hard to come to this point...you are persuading me to let go?"

"So what if you don't let go? Are you going to drag the two sisters of the Chu family, Liaodong, and Donglai...all into this muddy water?" Huo Yu looked at Huo Yunshu with tears in his eyes: "Yunshu ! Can't you think about why Huo's family suffered such a catastrophe?"

"I belong to the Huo family, a civil and military heir, and a family of three ministers in this dynasty, with power over several emperors. If it wasn't because of Prince Shang, how could the family be exterminated by the current dog emperor?"

"Yes! Yes! That's right! That's what everyone says! But Huo Yunshu, can you use this reason to deceive yourself?" Huo Yu slapped the table every sentence, and said in a ruthless voice: "Why do my Huo clan have so many troubles?" ? During the Xuandi period of the previous dynasty, there were several disasters that wiped out the clan, but this dynasty has repeated the same mistakes...Why? Why?!"

"..."

"The Wang clan of Langya started before the Qin Dynasty. It has been ups and downs for hundreds of years, but it is still prominent today? Why? Why is this?"

"..."

"The king and the minister! The British master and the loyal minister! The wise master and the capable minister! The mediocre master and the powerful minister!" Approaching Huo Yunshu, Huo Yu was almost hoarse: "The ancestor Huo Zimeng served Emperor Wu for more than [-] years. He has never made a mistake and is deeply trusted. He is a loyal minister of Tuogu! During Emperor Zhao's period, he monopolized power, amnesty the world many times, encouraged farming, recuperated, and restored the national power exhausted by Emperor Wu's military. He was hailed as a capable minister! Not only does it affect the whole family, but it even involves thousands of families in Chang'an City... From then on, I will be called a powerful minister!"

Huo Yunshu's eyes were red, and he looked back at Huo Yu: "Compared with the three emperors of Wu, Zhao, and Xuan, my emperor is far behind. One door, all powerful officials!"

So, is Huo Shi wrong?

Huo Yunshu choked up speechless, picked up the wine jar, and poured it into his mouth.

"Maybe it's Huo's fault, maybe it's not... But what's the point of pursuing this now?" After Huo Yunshu finished drinking, Huo Yu took over the wine jar and continued to drink: "Yunshu, Mrs. Xie, before leaving Donglai, Come and have a word with me."

Huo Yunshu was slightly stunned: "Mistress Xie? Xie Yunzhu? Before she went to Muyang City, did she come to the county to look for you?"

"No, I wasn't in the county seat at the time. I was supervising the construction of county roads in Changyang County, and she made a special trip from Huang County." Huo Yu said, "She came here to convey the message for the envoy of Chu."

"What?"

"The past can't be followed. Let the past be the past. The present and the future are more important." Huo Yu said: "Xie Niangzi found what the madam left for her in Donglai Mountain."

"What is it?" Huo Yunshu hurriedly asked, "Is it a letter?"

He remembered that Chu Ning had mentioned that at the beginning, the village master's wife asked a blind woman to bring a letter to Xie Yunzhu and hide it in Taoling Village.

If Xie Yunzhu found this letter, he might be able to reveal the secret of the silk weaving woman who was robbed in Zizhu Village, and maybe he could find out the cause of the death of the village owner's wife.

"It's not a letter, but a weaving book." Huo Yu sighed, "It's a weaving book written by Madam."

Hearing this, Huo Yunshu couldn't help but be disappointed: "It's just weaving books? I should still be able to find out the cause of Madam's death..."

"Yun Shu, as smart as you, have you never doubted Madam?"

Huo Yunshu was shocked suddenly, and he didn't dare to say anything: "What does Uncle San mean by this?"

"Except for Madam, who in the entire village at that time could fully recognize those silk weaving women? Who would write down their residences one by one?"

"..."

Huo Yunshu was suddenly speechless, he couldn't figure out the reason why his wife did this.

Huo Yu looked at him with sad eyes: "You can't think of a reason for Madam to do this, can you?"

"Yes! At that time, there was her husband and her child in the village... Madam... Didn't she know that doing so would bring her husband and child to a dead end?"

"Yun Shu, do you think that the dignified daughter of the Gu family will take a bandit leader as her husband? Do you think she will take two... children who should not exist at all, as her own children?" Huo Yu took a sip of wine and sighed: "At that time...she might be like you now, full of hatred!"

"So, she colluded with Qinglong Village, and together with those villages, came to destroy Zizhu Village???" Hearing this, Huo Yunshu was furious: "Those weavers are dead, injured, blind, disabled... How innocent?!!!"

"Then what about Madam?" Huo Yu asked back: "She just passed down Donglai Mountain with her servants 18 years ago, but you captured her back to the mountain and became Madam Yazhai...how innocent is she?"

"..."

Huo Yunshu lost his words. He felt that he couldn't refute Huo Yu's words at all, and couldn't help being upset. He suddenly found that the hatred he had always insisted on began to waver.

"Maybe Madam hates Chu Yidao, maybe Madam hates you, maybe Madam hates her two children...Maybe, she hates everyone." Huo Yu continued to drink wildly, then picked a few fried beans and threw them into his mouth Li: "But until the end, she just took what she brought and took away."

"Mr. Chu asked Mrs. Xie to bring the words, no matter love or hate, since it is over, then let him go." After eating the beans, Huo Yu said again: "She can't choose her own birth, and she can't choose her own life." She doesn't know who to turn to to avenge her mother—the Qinglong Village who took the lead in the robbery? The Zizhu Village where the money is cheap? Or the Gu family who forced Madam to flee to the end of the world?"

"No wonder Mrs. Xie has been staying in Shepherd City, and she still makes a fuss about moving the clothing store there. It turns out that's the case." Hearing this, Huo Yunshu smiled bitterly: "What about my Huo family? Is it because the king is mediocre? Is it wrong to support the former crown prince, or is it wrong to be too ruthless because of the wrong position? The Huo family is full of blood debts, so it is true that they cannot be repaid?"

"Maybe there is. In the words of Mr. Chu, if you live happier, longer, and happier than your enemies, that is revenge."

"..."

"Yun Shu, do you know why Third Uncle joined the Bai family?"

"Third Uncle never said that."

"After Huo's family broke up, you went to Donglai with my third uncle, studied and practiced martial arts, and you are very self-disciplined, which makes my third uncle very happy." Huo Yu chewed beans, recalling the past: "But later, you and that bastard Chu Yidao Get mixed up, alas, that guy Chu Yidao is really an idiot, Third Uncle, I can't look down on him! From the bottom of my heart, I can't look down on him!"

"From childhood to adulthood, the person that you admired, third uncle, is probably the only one who is in charge of the family." Secretary Huo Yun knew very well that when Huo Yu was still young, when the Huo family was still around, his third uncle was arrogant. Incomparably, even the patriarch of the Huo clan didn't pay attention.

"Yes! My third uncle, I have taken a fancy to Mr. Bai's family. At that time, Mr. Bai brought two maids with him when he returned to Huang County. They were not as rich as they are now, but your third uncle saw me, hey! What a heart! I just thought, um! It's her!" Huo Yu looked a little drunk, clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "It's like seeing the backbone, without her, I feel like I can't live well this day. Looking at her like this After tossing and tossing like that, I feel at ease in my heart, and I feel that there is hope for this day!"

"...Toss...Third Uncle, you are not talking about Master Bai, right? It should be the one from Muyang City?" Huo Yunshu smiled wryly: "In terms of tossing, who can do it better than her? Building side roads and digging ponds, which county guard? , is it like her?"

"Yes! And the sheriff of Shepherd City!" Huo Yu laughed loudly: "Is that right? Enough torment? Ke Yunshu, aren't you also tormenting? I heard from your subordinate officials that you are shepherding sheep In the city, being sent by her to help people talk about their marriage every day, isn't that enough torment? But don't you enjoy it too?"

Huo Yunshu was stunned, thinking about his original intention of going to Liaodong years ago, he couldn't help his complexion changed slightly, and then he sighed: "Third Uncle, maybe you are right, those two people are really tossing... But no matter how much they go to Liaodong, they still can't help it." It's unbearable."

Picking up a handful of beans and stuffing them into his mouth, Huo Yunshu chewed a few mouthfuls, swallowed them with strong wine, and said emotionally: "Actually, most of the time, I would unconsciously forget that they are actually juniors, that they are actually As daughters, I hope that they can write more letters, and I also hope that they can make some progress."

"So, Yun Shu, let's change our way of life, and the Huo family will also change our way of life."

"Uncle Three..."

"Don't think about revenge anymore. Look at that Yuan family, isn't he following the Huo family's old path now?" Huo Yu said: "Since that road doesn't work, let's change it."
